Everyone who always says they want something that sounds different than 808 and 909 and when that something comes out the comments are: "but the kick is soft, the metallic sound, too fi". Keep your 808 and 909 which are the only ones that will fit you for the next 20 years!
Yeah, my main misgivings were that I don't like a workflow that involves a lot of sample selection, and that I hadn't gotten a very wide selection of the analog sounds. While nine of this is anything like the music I'd make, it still gives a better idea of the actual sound than any other video I've seen yet.
I saw a lot of drumlogue vids and It’s much deeper than i thought. Kick and all sounds great. New sounds for new times i ordered one. Can’t wait to hook it up on my analog heat/acidbox
I like it! Again an awesome demo, you never disappoint. I'll add this one to my collection of drum machines, the open SDK, korg circuit design and knowhow is promising. Plenty of tools available to make it sound gritty, so I like that it sounds so wholesome and balanced.
Definitely. I feel like with the ability to sequence a 64 step bass line on here (I'm assuming that you can sequence external gear as well as the internal synth) you could connect a prologue 16, split the keyboard, and have drums, bass, and lead with only two pieces of gear. Of course, it can be great to add more, but I'm the type of minimalist looking for the ways to make a song with the least gear. This could really be great with the prologue, or both XD and OG minilogue...or the sky is the limit
i like korg a lot so i was very excited about this machine. but arghhh.....at first only very mildly impressed........i was like... WTF...until 5:17 min when its really going to groove. resumee: sounds very interesting in my ears and looks very nice with some MS20 design quotes (in left poti area). i think a direct competitor can be the erica LXR2 which ist not analogue, but very complex and capable of analogue behaviour. resumee 2: you can never have enough drum machines. 😁 thanks for the video.
Hehe, salute Herbert !! :) Yeah, the main drum machine part - the kick - sounds a bit flat/boring unfortunately ... plok, plok, plok ...give us some booooooom !!!. Definitely no LXR2 replacement, but maybe an addition with it's other cool features :)
@@OliverGreschke ;-) salute, oliver! absolutely 100% d´accord with you. and yes, beeing totally addicted to hardware drum machines i was thinking about adding the drumlogue to the LXR. but.......maybe electricity bill puts a spoke in my wheel 🤨😁

@@SonicVibe not for me bro. Different is not bad in my opinion. Thin? What is thin? Most jazz snares are thin then? Piccolo snares are ACTUALLY thin, so? They sound good. Wtf is thin?
@@BargenMusic you know how people listen 🎧 to music in them 10 dollars headphones verse proper studio monitors? well it sounds like the ten dollar ones the click of the button for the kick drum clicks louder then the kick drum 🥁 itself 😂
Great comment. Most of these haters don't imagine what guys had to work out classics out of very basic tools. This is true for Electronic music, but also for all those classic rock albums made with 4 tracks, or very basic studios..
am I crazy for thinking it sounds great? Like seriously, sounds like an absolute beast. I think people just see Korg and are like meh. Put it in a Jomox case and people would be like "it's amazing".
Hello! I have a question for users of this drum machine: So, the body of my unit from below heats up quite noticeably Is this normal? Also the encoders under the display sometimes give erroneous values, for example when adjusting the amount of reverb or filter etc Are there similar nuances in your Drumlogue? 1.2.0 software, also i initialize full reset of device rotate the encoders both very quickly and very slowly, and it happens that I rotate the encoder to the right to increase the value, but sometimes it, on the contrary, abruptly changes downward this is weird Does this happen to you? and this drum machine heats up noticeably in the area of the plastic bottom, somewhat similar in temperature and sensation to heating a laptop
Electribe2 is a groovebox, this is a drum machine. Or "failed groovebox", if you wish. Drumlogue sounds are much clearer and the overall sound is cleaner than an Electribe2. Best to combine Drumlogue with other synths rather try to hammer out a full groove on the Drumlogue alone like you could on a proper groovebox like the Electribe2. Same way you'd handle a TR-909, basically.
i mean.... presets can be know to sound kinda silly? or are these not presets. not all of it is silly, just needs much more time probably per element, or hopefully it is that.
The kicks have a lot of sub bass but not a lot of kick. At 0:30 you almost had a basic electro kick but it was still really soft and not kicky. I didn't hear any usable kicks in the whole video, just sub-bass drums. You almost got there at 4:50 but the transient part sounded disconnected from the sub bass which had a much slower attack, turning it into a rolling sub-bassline with a pre attack. I didn't hear one regular meaty kick drum sound where the transient and the sub bass were both tight.
Factory grooves could use volume boost to the kick, and a bunch of them do not have the kick maxxed out, so there is room to boost it. The triangle analogue sub needs a bit of tweaking in some factory kits.
I bought one and never sold a piece of gear faster. USB midi implementation is broken and personally I didn’t get any inspiration from the sounds or interface.
Might be good for some users, but if they incorporated an overbridge like functionality to actually make it useable with daw/sidechaining, would be way better for broader group of producers
it has internal sidechaining and I guess, one of the main points of an external drum machine with individual outs is the possibility to use it without any computer. But having Audio via USB doesn't hurt, either
Volca sounds lo-fi but it's expected, even so, the bd has presence and the snare snap. This has no excuse for the bd sounding muddy and the hihats sounding like they set the destination bitrate at 128 or lower.
@@circedge however... If I use V-drum and V-beats together I have more possibilities to shape the sound. and it just sounds better. Drumlogue seems well thought out, has its own sound. But for over 600 euros I find the possibilities quite limited with BD, SNR in table horn flair, but ANALOG :-) Drumlogue with the technology of the V-Drum would have been the better option in my opinion.
Haha. Depends on how you tune the sounds and it has 4 analog parts, 6 sample parts plus the multi engine. So which part is sounding tinny exactly? The analog parts? No.. the sample parts? No because it depends on the sample.. the multi engine part? No, because it depends on the sound and the tuning.
@@epicon6 Yes, the analog sounds, sample sounds, multi engine sounds ALL are a bit thin in tone. Otherwise I would purchase this. It sounds like a larger version of a Drum Volca.💡
I'm really tired of the wannabe 808 drum 🙏 can someone make a drum machine that doesn't sound like an 808,try demos where the drum unit that has hard rock sounds
@@Aetila You I would like the same as well,but everyone is stuck on that damn 808,909 drum sound,"Hell" I would really enjoy a DMX drum clone myself that was the drum unit that was out during 80's also the DMX was just as popular as the LmDrum was but a cheaper 😉 around $3,450 I think ,I can't remember but it was the alternative to the LmDrum.
@@andregodfrey559 Thanks for the reply! I feel annoyed that they (Yammy, Korg) don't even have LinnDrums samples in their PCM synths like the Motif ES rack and the Radias rack I have. They have the classical drums sounds you mentioned and they are amazing...but I would need those fat LD drum sounds for synthwave...it's crazy that these racks have everything, except LD samples, grrrrrr!
it really does sound like 💩. bad circuit designs. sounds half baked. I would recommend people save up and get a electron rytm. you can get a used Mark 1 for like 600 bucks. the screen is garbage but it's a fantastic machine. if you can afford a mark 2 it's the luxury version. mk1 has the same circuitry and 99% of the same features.

Superb tool. Nice form factor, ease of use and plenty of useful tones. Thanks, Korg!
Yeah and only 32 MB 😂😂...

might be the point..
@@iima___ they should’ve put all the sound engines in one unit.

06:42 - Suspicions that, as it has multiple outs, analogue, digital, samples and onboard FX, this would be great for Dub Techno; confirmed.
a bit muddy but yeah u right:D:D

Hello! I have a question for users of this drum machine:
So, the body of my unit from below heats up quite noticeably
Is this normal?
Also the encoders under the display sometimes give erroneous values, for example when adjusting the amount of reverb or filter etc
Are there similar nuances in your Drumlogue?
1.2.0 software, also i initialize full reset of device
rotate the encoders both very quickly and very slowly, and it happens that I rotate the encoder to the right to increase the value, but sometimes it, on the contrary, abruptly changes downward
this is weird
Does this happen to you?
and this drum machine heats up noticeably in the area of the plastic bottom, somewhat similar in temperature and sensation to heating a laptop
hello. Can you please tell me how hard is the Korg Drumlogue for a beginner to master? say learning curve? thank you
I found it quite easy to learn. Way easier than a Roland TR-8S, for example
🔝🔝🔝
Is this a successor to the electribe 2? How do you think it compares?
Electribe2 is a groovebox, this is a drum machine. Or "failed groovebox", if you wish. Drumlogue sounds are much clearer and the overall sound is cleaner than an Electribe2. Best to combine Drumlogue with other synths rather try to hammer out a full groove on the Drumlogue alone like you could on a proper groovebox like the Electribe2. Same way you'd handle a TR-909, basically.
Im a korg Fan and drumlogue sounds good and all
but poor men cant spent money.
It’s not the sounds that mess with me, it’s the interface, and expectation that this could have functioned closer to an electribe 2
It's definitely as overly simplistic as the Electribe2.
Very soft kick!
Soft kick is good for processing, but if you want SOOTB good kicks, this isn't for you.
@@timemasterhms this is so true, soft kicks without massive transients and sausage-like body take very well to external processing. :D
You can get some harder kicks out of this. Check out some of the Oscillator Sink videos as well.
Use its compressor to fatten up the softness
It’s almost laughable bad kick and snare and I’m cranking my studio monitors and barely hear it .
hello,
is it possible to load own samples into maschine?
if yes or even if no, is possible to humanize the drums? something like j dilla vibe
You can humanize using the Global Groove settings and individual note offsets.
are all sounds here coming from this machine only?
yes
😭😭😭 One more thing I don’t need to know exists
i mean.... presets can be know to sound kinda silly? or are these not presets. not all of it is silly, just needs much more time probably per element, or hopefully it is that.
that and some distortion would be helpful!
